		<description>I don&#039;t get it.  The &quot;scrapers&quot; are not the reason for the Google problem, right?  Those are two separate issues, right?  Unfortunately, I know all about the scrapers and I keep deleting their stupid link backs.  I had one that made absolutely no sense and looked like the kind of things and porn sites do -- write useless, meaningless words. 

Google hates me too -- from a PR 4 after one year down to a 0.  I&#039;m sure I know why but the scraper thing caught my attention.  So, what was it you add to chase them away or mess them up?  Sorry, please forgive my ignorance.</description>

		<description>Jake, I know just how you feel. Thankfully most of my scapers are of the &quot;steal the first 10 lines and give him a link&quot; variety. What really burns me up is when they rank higher for a given keyword than I do, even though I have thousands of back links, my blog&#039;s been around for almost 2 years, and has a PR4. The typical scraper has no PR, has been around for only 6 months or less, and has few backlinks. What gives? In addition, some of them look on Technorati as if they actually posted before I did. You&#039;ll notice if you include links in the first few lines of your post, they conveniently omit them. 
Have a great weekend.</description>

		<description>Can I get the link to that plug in please. And sorry to hear that Jake, the more I read about Google and crap they do the more I come to dislike them. Do you have an email for them so I can contact them, my rank dropped as well and I just need to figure out why.</description>

		<description>Hey Jake,

Shoemoney mentioned in a recent post about a plugin he developed with Joost de Valk that should help with this.  Scrapers take from RSS feeds a lot, and this plugin adds a link to your site at the very end.  I dunno if it solves your problem completely, but it saves you the trouble of deeplinking every single page... unless you want to.</description>
